1. I oppose the hunting of rare and endangered species. That's it. |
|
Stuff a fish, mount a moose head...I don't care.

Unless you're starving and there is absolutely nothing else to eat within miles. Otherwise, there's no need for hunting anymore.

6. As I posted on another thread... |
|
I've known people for whom hunting provided a substantial part of their diet. I'm fine with hunting under those circumstances. In fact, I'm all for people hunting or fishing for food, even though I realize this will offend the vegan crowd. Hunting just or the trophy or for the fun of kiling something, though, kind of burns me.

8. Hunting should be for food only. |
|
It's an important part of the Native culture up here, so I would never oppose hunting for subsistence. I have mixed emotions about city-dwelling hunters, but I know some people just like the taste of the wild meat, and enjoy the experience of hunting. Plus, wild meat isn't so full of additives. But I really don't like people hunting just for the thrill of the kill or to bring home a trophy. That's just wrong.

11. Trophy hunting and going out for a kill-thrill |
|
I was brought up that if you kill something, you have to eat it.
This was strictly enforced when I killed an opossum with a pellet gun back when I was 10. My dad made me skin it, clean it, butcher it, and cook it.
Didn't taste half bad, with all the gravy. But it wasn't fun at all.
